    Trans people can no longer get passports.

    President Musk is a personally motivated transphobe.

    Trans people are the first line in this iteration of the poem. We have already been abandoned by the Democratic party.

      Trans, like all other marginalized communities, were only ever pawns for power to the DNC. Used to obtain their goals then tossed aside when they were no longer needed.

          That’s one reason why I didn’t speculate on the reason for the omission.

      The Democratic party has no institutional power at the moment. Stop assessing blame to them and focus in who is allied and able to help.

      Blaming the Democratic Party is completely useless, as useless as you believe them to be. In part they are captured, and in part they are literally in the jaws of a fascist government.

      And you’re still blaming them for this moment. They might end up at GITMO.

        Dems have no institutional power when they are the majority. They are ineffective in everything they do. And theyve enabled the current fascists in power.
